Navigating Data Challenges in Finance with Scott Hollrah | ERP Integration, Automation & Data Governance
In this episode of FinFactor, Blaine Bertsch sits down with Scott Hollrah, CEO of Venn Technology, to tackle one of the toughest issues facing finance leaders today: fragmented financial data. As organizations juggle multiple systems—ERP software, CRMs, data warehouses, and cloud accounting platforms—manual processes and disconnected tools create inefficiencies, errors, and major roadblocks for financial analysis and accurate forecasting.
Scott shares how automation, system integration, and well-defined business processes are transforming enterprise resource planning and finance operations. By connecting business intelligence tools, streamlining data flows, and reinforcing strong data governance, CFOs can eliminate silos and gain real-time insights that improve decision-making.
The conversation highlights why successful technology adoption goes far beyond choosing the right tools. Scott emphasizes the importance of aligning cross-functional teams, strengthening data reporting and analysis, and building trusted partnerships that allow finance leaders to shift their focus from admin-heavy tasks to financial modeling, scenario planning, and strategic growth. Along the way, they discuss how the right approach to integration reduces burnout, drives efficiency, and builds resilience across the finance function.
This episode is packed with practical takeaways for CFOs, controllers, and finance professionals looking to future-proof their systems, improve accuracy, and unlock the full potential of their financial data.
